festacman: If that's what truly led to that massive extra time then it is negligence of duty on the part of LMC. If the LMC officials were alarmed and concerned as they ought to be, they should have put an emergency call through to its match officials who are live on the pitch for information to enable them clear the air on that very Sunday evening before the media and public would start questioning the timing. Clearing the air several days after the incident is rather poor.
Moreover, all the negative publicity generated by that extraordinary extra time should have been avoided if the Twitter handles of either Katsina United or Remo Stars tweeted about that pitch invasion and the fact that the match was held up.
Going forward, LMC officials should as matter of duty keep tabs on all live matches on every match day for any unsavory incidents like violence, medical emergency and pitch invasion, etc. in order to stay on top of such issues. Even the match officials on the pitch should file emergency report to designated LMC WhatsApp account when an unsavory incidents occurs.

But you should be civil in your comments. Not ethnic bantering or insults. Robust arguments preferable. Needless gratuitous insults.

Idiots and childish posters like this one has no business in nairaland. He is an embarrassment because foreigners come to this website. Reading such hollow and childish comments from him doesn't make sense at all.

Unity Beggar. Still yarning nonsense. Very soon, you will be sent back to Futa Jallon where you emigrated from.
This is where the military is needed. Not South East.
I now know there is hidden agenda to islamize Nigeria. Otherwise,why should Buhari keep quiet but form champion on issues relating to southeastern States and South generally.
Indigenous Nigerians should rise and defend their heritage instead of keeping quiet. The Central African Republic showed the way by shoving aside Fulani agenda in their country by engaging them in streets fight.
robosky02: NPFL: LMC sanctions Kano Pillars, expels its chairman
Kano Pillars have been hammered by the LMC for their unprofessional conduct in the matchday 34 encounter against Dakkada. ByTunde Eludini June 26, 2022 2 min read
The League Management Company (LMC) has announced the expulsion of Kano Pillars Chairman, Suraj Yahaya, from the Nigerian Professional Football League (NPFL) “with immediate effect”.
The expulsion of Mr Yayaha and other sanctions slammed on Kano Pillars were contained in an official statement issued by the LMC Saturday night.
LMC delegate Uchenna Iyoke will get a compensation of N500,000 for lost valuables in the course of the Kano Pillars v Dakkada match.#NPFL22
— League Management NG (@LMCNPFL) June 25, 2022
The statement read: “Kano Pillars have been charged for breaching the #NPFL22 Framework & Rules during the course of the match vs Dakkada on June 23, 2022.
“Kano Pillars chairman Suraj Yahaya also assaulted a match official Daramola Olalekan (assistant referee 1) with his conduct capable of bringing the game to disrepute.
“The Kano club are fined N1m for failing to ensure proper conduct of their officials in obvious disregard of NPFL Framework & Rules as well as the assurance letter issued by the Kano State Commissioner of Police on June 8, 2022.
“A further N1m fine is imposed on Kano Pillars for the assault on a match official. The club are also fined N250,000 being compensation for the assaulted match official.
“Kano Pillars chairman Suraj Yahaya is expelled from the league with immediate effect. The club are to follow up on the arrest of the offending official to ensure his full prosecution in furtherance of the police report lodged by the match officials on June 23, 2022,” the LMC said
The league organisers also handed a suspended two points deduction to the club in an event of further unruly actions from them.
“In the event of any further similar breach of the League Rules regarding the assault of Match Officials, Kano Pillars shall forfeit 2 points from the points accruing to the club, in addition to any other sanctions that may be deemed appropriate in the circumstance.
“LMC delegate Uchenna Iyoke will get a compensation of N500,000 for lost valuables in the course of the Kano Pillars v Dakkada match.”
Meanwhile, the LMC has also called for a review of the performance of match officials in the Kano Pillars vs Dakkada game.
The officials are Ayatu Mohammed – Center Ref, Daramola Olalekan – Assistant Referee1, and Nura Ali – Assistant Referee 2.
Fracas in Kano Dakkada had scored a late equalizer against Kano Pillars in the June 23rd encounter
However, the now expelled Pillars’ chairman assaulted the match officials as seen in a viral video; a development that led to the referees upturning their early decision.
Pillars at different times have been punished for unruly behaviours of their fans or officials.
Barely three months ago, the Kano-based club was also fined ₦9 million and banished to Abuja. They also had three points deducted for crowd violence.
Aside from Pillars, some other clubs have also been caught in the web of football-related violence.
The most recent case was in Ibadan where a journalist Tobi Adepoju was attacked by some 3SC fans after the NPFL game between Shooting Stars and Remo Stars.
The LMC fined 3SC N3 million for that incident while also directing that the sum of N500,000 be paid to the attacked journalist as compensation.

lessonotes: The whole arrangement of this man emerging VP candidate has James Ibori's signature written over everything. PDP will never ceases to amaze me.
Okowa is not in good books of James Ibori. In fact, they are at loggerhead due to personality phobia.
Parachoko: Even if Wike does not leave the PDP, he won't be fully committed in working for the party in the presidential election, he will only focus on the state election.
But he should work for Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
He is capable of leading Nigeria to greatness.

Work for which Tinubu? The man who helped install tyranny in the land and promoting Buhari's bogus ideals should be voted into power. I think you must be s joker and who is not abreast with history. Go and sit down with your Tinubu!
